Health care is a basic human right, yet thousands do not have access to essential health facilities. You can help provide critical treatment and ensure that expecting mothers have the care they need to deliver their babies safely. Your support can bring the transformation needed to save lives.
Serve essential needs. Serve Humanity.
Health care is a basic human right.
Healthcare is not a luxury, and yet for hundreds of millions of people around the world, it is something that they cannot access due to financial, socioeconomic, and political reasons beyond their control.
We have seen in recent years how important good health is.
Millions of people live under a fragile healthcare system around the world and are suffering as a result.
The good news is that you can help us distribute essential healthcare to those most in need by making a small donation to our appeal.
For more than 35 years, Muslim Aid has been working tirelessly to level the playing field when it comes to healthcare. Our goal has always been to improve access to quality healthcare for the most vulnerable members of society, including those who contract diseases, are malnourished, and have sustained potentially fatal injuries.
There is importance held in medical research, treatment and helping the sick. The Prophet (pbuh) said:
Allah does not create any disease, but He also creates with it a cure, except for old age
(Ibn Majah 3436)
Act now to save lives
Will ensure mothers are able to safely deliver babies
Will allow a vulnerable family to access vital medical care services
Could help fund a health clinic/hospital in rural areas
One example of how essential our work is comes in the form of little Aisha.
Aisha was just eight months old when we met her, living in a rural area of Somalia. Like many others in the region, her family lives in a constant state of poverty. As a result, they’re unable to access a nutritious and secure food supply.
Aisha visited the Muslim Aid health centre with her mother. Aisha’s mother was concerned that Aisha was suffering from diarrhoea and rapid weight loss. Her sister had previously endured this same issue. Following an assessment, Aisha was diagnosed with acute malnutrition and was admitted to the clinic for treatment.
Thankfully, Aisha began to recover following her treatment and has since been discharged. Her family has been given nutritious supplements, and support whilst the Muslim Aid programme continues to monitor her.
Help us eradicate preventable diseases and malnutrition and provide essential medical aid to those in need of it.
Our Muslim Aid health centres serve to provide people living in rural communities and poverty with easy access to life-saving vaccines, emergency nutrition supplies, and other treatment resources at a more local level.
By donating to our Medical Aid appeal, you serve to ensure we can continue our efforts, helping more people to live a healthy, long life free of disease and hardship. Your donation, no matter how big or small, can go towards helping more people like Aisha. Please give what you can so our team can continue to save precious lives.
We are a faith-based British international charity that provides help to people who are victims of natural disasters or conflict or suffering from poverty, hunger, disease, homelessness, injustice, deprivation or lack of skills and economic opportunities.
